“Io ho vissuto seguendo tutte le regole di Dio, tu non ne hai seguita nessuna e tutti ti hanno amato di più”
Alfred Ludlow (Aidan Quinn) da “Vento di passioni” ( Edward Zwick – 1994)
Genesis – Into Deep
All that time I was searching
Nowhere to run to, it started me thinking
Wondering what I could make of my life
And who’d be waiting
Asking all kinds of questions, to myself
But never finding the answers
Crying at the top of my voice
And no one listening
All this time
I still remember everything you said
There’s so much you promised
How could I ever forget
Listen, you know I love you, but I just can’t take this
You know I love you, but I’m playing for keeps
Although I need you, I’m not gonna make this
You know I want to, but I’m in too deep
So listen, listen to me
Oh you must believe me
I can feel your eyes go through me
But I don’t know why
Oh I know you’re going, but I can’t believe
It’s the way that you’re leaving
It’s like we never knew each other at all
It may be my fault
I gave you too many reasons, being alone
When I didn’t want to
I thought you’d always be there
I almost believed you
All this time
I still remember everything you said, oh
There’s so much you promised
How could I ever forget
Listen, you know I love you, but I just can’t take this
You know I love you, but I’m playing for keeps
Although I need you, I’m not gonna make this
You know I want to, but I’m in too deep
So listen, listen to me
I can feel your eyes go through me
It seems I’ve spent too long
Only thinking about myself, oh
Now I want to spend my life
Just caring ‘bout somebody else
Listen, you know I love you, but I just can’t take this
You know I love you, but I’m playing for keeps
Although I need you, I’m not gonna make this
You know I want to, but I’m in too deep
You know I love you, but I just can’t take this
You know I love you, but I’m playing for keeps
Although I need you, I’m not gonna make this
You know I want to, but I’m in too deep
You know I love you, but I just can’t take this
You know I love you, but I’m playing for keeps
Although I need you, I’m not gonna make this
You know I want to, but I’m in too deep
“I giorni sono diventati settimane, le settimane mesi e poi, un giorno come un altro, sono andato alla mia macchina da scrivere, mi sono seduto e ho scritto la nostra storia… una storia che parla di un tempo, che parla di un luogo, di persone, ma soprattutto che parla d’amore, un amore che vivrà per sempre”
Christian (Ewan McGregor) da Moulin Rouge” (Baz Luhrmann – 2001)
Toto – Stop Loving You
Reflections in my mind
Thoughts I can’t define
My heart is racing and the night goes on
I can almost hear a laugh
Coming from your photograph
Funny how a look can share a thousand meanings
Well-intended lies
Contemplating alibis
Is it really you or is it me I’m blaming?
A distant memory
Flashes over me
Even though you’re gone I feel you deep inside
Dance beneath the light with that look in your eyes
I can’t stop loving you
Time passes quickly and chances are few
I won’t stop ‘til I’m through loving you girl
There’s a window in the heart
I’ve tried to look through from the start
You’re never really sure what someone else is thinking
Someone’s broken something new
Another altered point of view
Just a certain someone’s conscience playing
I held it in my hand
I did not understand
What lives inside the wind that cries her name
Trying to catch a shooting star
What seems so close can’t be that far
I’m living in a dream that’s never ending
Dance beneath the light with that look in your eyes
I can’t stop loving you
Time passes quickly and chances are few
I won’t stop ‘til I’m through loving you girl
Dancing with that look that’s in your eyes
I can’t stop loving you
Time passes quickly and chances are few
I won’t stop ‘til I’m through loving you girl
I can’t stop loving you
Time passes quickly and chances are few
I won’t stop ‘til I’m through loving you
Loving you
“Vedi Lelaine, non ci serve altro: un paio di Bagel, una tazza di caffè e un po’ di conversazione… io, te e cinque dollari”
Troy Dyer (Ethan Hawke) da “Giovani carini e disoccupati” (Ben Stiller – 1994)
Culture Club – Victims
The victims we know so well
They shine in your eyes
When they kiss and tell
Strange places we never see
But you’re always there
Like a ghost in my dream
And I keep on telling you
Please don’t do the things you do
When you do those things
Pull my puppet strings
Have the strangest void for you
Love leads us into the stream
And it’s sink or swim
Like it’s always been
And I keep on loving you
It’s the only thing to do
When the angel sings
There are greater things
Can I give them all to you
Oh
Pull the strings of emotion
Take a ride into unknown pleasure
Feel like a child on a dark night
Wishing there was some kind of heaven
I could be warm with you, smiling
Hold out your hand for a while
The victims
We know them so well
So well
The victims we know so well
They shine in your eyes
When they kiss and tell
Strange places we never see
But you’re always there
Like a ghost in my dream
And I keep on telling you
Please don’t do the things you do
When you do those things
Pull my puppet strings
Have the strangest void for you
Oh
Show my heart some devotion
Push aside those that whisper “never”
Feel like a child on a dark night
Wishing we could spend it together
I could be warm with you, smiling
Hold out your hand for a while
The victims
We know them so well
So well
“Io penso che l’amore vero, autentico, crei una tregua dalla morte”
Ernest (Corey Stoll) da Midnight in Paris” (Woody Allen – 2011)
John Legend – Love Me Now
Pulling me further
Further than I’ve been before
Making me stronger
Shaking me right to the core, oh
I don’t know what’s in the stars
Never heard it from above, the world isn’t ours
But I know what’s in my heart
If you ain’t mine I’ll be torn apart
I don’t know who’s gonna kiss you when I’m gone
So I’m gonna love you now, like it’s all I have
I know it’ll kill me when it’s over
I don’t wanna think about it, I want you to love me now
I don’t know who’s gonna kiss you when I’m gone
So I’m gonna love you now, like it’s all I have
I know it’ll kill me when it’s over
I don’t wanna think about it, I want you to love me now
Love me now (love me now)
Love me now (love me now)
Oh, oh, love me now, oh, oh, oh, yeah
Love me now (love me now)
Love me now (love me now)
I want you to love me now
Something inside us
Knows there’s nothing guaranteed, yeah
Girl, I don’t need you
To tell me that you’ll never leave, no
When we’ve done all that we could
To turn darkness into light, turn evil to good
Even when we try so hard
For that perfect kind of love, it could all fall apart
And who’s gonna kiss you when I’m gone?
Oh I’m gonna love you now, like it’s all I have
And I know it’ll kill me when it’s over
I don’t wanna think about it, I want you to love me now
Love me now (love me now)
Love me now (love me now)
Oh, oh, love me now, oh, oh, oh, yeah
Love me now (love me now)
Love me now (love me now)
Love me now
Oh!
I don’t know how the years will go down, it’s alright
Let’s make the most of every moment tonight
I don’t know who’s gonna kiss you when I’m gone
So I’m gonna love you now, like it’s all I have
I know it’ll kill me when it’s over
I don’t wanna think about it, I want you to love me now
I don’t know who’s gonna kiss you when I’m gone
So I’m gonna love you now, like it’s all I have
And I know it’ll kill me when it’s over
I don’t wanna think about it, I just wanna love you now
Love me now (love me now)
Love me now (love me now)
Oh, oh, love you now, oh, oh, oh, yeah
Love me now (love you now)
Love me now
Oh love you now
Oh oh oh
“Parlare in continuazione non significa comunicare”
Joel Barish (Jim Carrey) da “Se mi lasci ti cancello” (Michel Gondry – 2004)
Jessie Ware – Say You Love Me
Say you love me to my face
I need it more than your embrace
Just say you want me, that’s all it takes
Heart’s getting torn from your mistakes
‘Cause I don’t wanna fall in love
If you don’t wanna try
But all that I’ve been thinking of
Is maybe that you might
And babe, it looks as though we’re running out of words to say
And love’s floating away
Just say you love me, just for today
And don’t give me time ‘cause that’s not the same
Want to feel burning flames when you say my name
Want to feel passion flow into my bones
Like blood through my veins
‘Cause I don’t wanna fall in love
If you don’t wanna try
But all that I’ve been thinking of
Is maybe that you might
And babe, it looks as though we’re running out of words to say
And love’s floating away
Won’t you stay
Won’t you stay
Slowly, slowly you run for me
But do you know me at all
Some one told me love controls everything
But only if you know
‘Cause I don’t wanna fall in love
(No no no no)
If you don’t wanna try
(Could you try some time)
‘Cause all that I’ve been thinking of
(I just think)
Is maybe that you might
(You might)
‘Cause I don’t wanna fall in love
If you don’t wanna try
But all that I’ve been thinking of
Is maybe that you might
And babe, it looks as though we’re running out of words to say
And love’s floating away
Won’t you stay
Won’t you stay
“Ma dov’eri tu dieci anni fa?”
Rick Blaine (Humphrey Bogart) da Casablanca” (Michael Curtiz – 1942)
Mr. Mister – Broken Wings
Baby, I don’t understand
Why we can’t just hold on
To each other’s hands
This time will be the last
I fear unless I make it all too clear
I need you so
Take these broken wings
And learn to fly again
And learn to live so free
When we hear the voices sing
The book of love will open up
And let us in
Take these broken wings
Baby, I think tonight
We can take what was wrong
And make it right
Baby, it’s all I know
That you’re half of the flesh
And blood makes me whole
I need you so
So take these broken wings
And learn to fly again
Learn to live so free
When we hear the voices sing
The book of love will open up
And let us in
Take these broken wings
You’ve got to learn to fly, learn to live, love so free
When we hear the voices sing
The book of love will open up and let us in yeah, yeah
Let us in
Let us in
Baby, it’s all I know that you’re half of the flesh
And blood that makes me whole
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
So take these broken wings
And learn to fly again, learn to live so free
And when we hear the voices sing
The book of love will open up and let us in
Take these broken wings
You got to learn to fly, learn to live and love so free
When we hear the voices sing
The book of love will open up for us and let us in
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
“Che cosa vuoi Holly? Perchè sono stanco di cercare di capirlo! Vuoi una casa grande? Trovo un secondo lavoro. Vuoi un figlio? Non vuoi un figlio? Che cosa vuoi? Io so cosa voglio perché lo sto stringendo proprio adesso.”
Gerry Kennedy (Gerard Butler) da “PS. I love you” (Richard LaGravenese – 2007)
Alicia Keys – If I Ain’t Got You
Some people live for the fortune
Some people live just for the fame
Some people live for the power, yeah
Some people live just to play the game
Some people think
That the physical things
Define what’s within
And I’ve been there before
That life’s a bore
So full of the superficial
Some people want it all
But I don’t want nothing at all
If it ain’t you, baby
If I ain’t got you, baby
Some people want diamond rings
Some just want everything
But everything means nothing
If I ain’t got you, yeah
Some people search for a fountain
Promises forever young
Some people need three dozen roses
And that’s the only way to prove you love them
Hand me the world on a silver platter
And what good would it be
With no one to share, with no one who truly cares for me
Some people want it all
But I don’t want nothing at all
If it ain’t you, baby
If I ain’t got you, baby
Some people want diamond rings
Some just want everything
But everything means nothing
If I ain’t got you, you, you
Some people want it all
But I don’t want nothing at all
If it ain’t you, baby
If I ain’t got you, baby
Some people want diamond rings
Some just want everything
But everything means nothing
If I ain’t got you, yeah
If I ain’t got you with me, baby, oh, ooh
Said nothing in this whole wide world don’t mean a thing
If I ain’t got you with me, baby
“Sei l’inquilino del mio cuore… sempre in ritardo con l’affitto, ma impossibile da sfrattare”
Paul (Sean Connery) e Mildred (Ellen Burstyn) da “Scherzi del cuore” (Willard Carroll – 1998)
Jess Glynne – Take Me Home
Wrapped up, so consumed by all this hurt
If you ask me, don’t know where to start
Anger, love, confusion, roads that go nowhere
I know there’s somewhere better ‘cause you always take me there
Came to you with a broken faith
Gave me more than a hand to hold
Caught before I hit the ground
Tell me I’m safe, you’ve got me now
Would you take the wheel
If I lose control?
If I’m lyin’ here
Will you take me home?
Could you take care
Of a broken soul?
Will you hold me now?
Will you take me home?
Will you take me home?
Will you take me home?
Will you take me home?
Will you take me home?
Hold the gun to my head
Count one, two, three
If it helps me walk away then it’s
What I need
Every minute gets easier
The more you talk to me
You rationalize my darkest thoughts
Yeah you, set them free
Came to you with a broken faith
Gave me more than a hand to hold
Caught before I hit the ground
Tell me I’m safe, you’ve got me now
Would you take the wheel
If I lose control?
If I’m lying here
Will you take me home?
Could you take care
Of a broken soul?
Will you hold me now?
Will you take me home?
Will you take me home?
Will you take me home?
Will you take me home?
You say space will make it better
And time will make it heal
I won’t be lost forever
And soon I wouldn’t feel
Like I’m haunted, oh-oh, falling
You say space will make it better
And time will make it heal
I won’t be lost forever
And soon I wouldn’t feel
Like I’m haunted, oh-oh, falling
You say space will make it better
And time will make it heal
I won’t be lost forever
And soon I wouldn’t feel
Like I’m haunted, oh-oh, falling
Would you take the wheel
If I lose control?
If I’m lying here
Will you take me home?
Could you take care
Of a broken soul?
Will you hold me now?
Will you take me home?
Will you take me home?
Will you take me home?
Will you take me home?
Will you take me home?
Home
Will you take me home?
Will you take me home?
